Editorial Reviews

Review

Guides to interpretation of electrophoresis are few: this book makes a useful contribution because it not only includes many clear photographs of electrophoresis strips but also shows the densitometric appearances that match the visual pattern... ...This is a very comprehensive book, dealing with aspects of electrophoresis and its potential use in diagnosis. It should be on the shelf in many laborotories. Winter 2004 -- ACP News

If you find yourself interpreting serum protein electrophoresis and immunofixations after a bit of a hiatus, this one's for you. Well-written. The author doesn't know, but I am a huge fan. I still re-read passages out of this book to my residents. I almost have it memorized.
